ANAL FISSURE - Lifestyle and home remedies

Several lifestyle changes may help relieve discomfort and promote healing of an anal fissure, as well as prevent recurrences:
  • Add fiber to your diet. Eating about 25 to 30 grams of fiber a day can help keep stools soft and improve fissure healing. Fiber-rich foods include fruits, vegetables, nuts and whole grains. You also can take a fiber supplement. Adding fiber may cause gas and bloating, so increase your intake gradually.
  • Drink adequate fluids. Fluids help prevent constipation.
  • Exercise regularly. Engage in 30 minutes or more of moderate physical activity, such as walking, most days of the week. Exercise promotes regular bowel movements and increases blood flow to all parts of your body, which may promote healing of an anal fissure.
  • Avoid straining during bowel movements. Straining creates pressure, which can open a healing tear or cause a new tear.
If your infant has an anal fissure, be sure to change diapers frequently, wash the area gently and discuss the problem with your infant's doctor.

Anal fissures often heal within a few weeks if you take steps to keep your stool soft, such as increasing your intake of fiber and fluids. Soaking in warm water for 10 to 20 minutes several times a day, especially after bowel movements, can help relax the sphincter and promote healing.
  • If your symptoms persist, you'll likely need further treatment.

    Nonsurgical treatments

    Your doctor may recommend:
    • Externally applied nitrogylcerin, to help increase blood flow to the fissure and promote healing, and to help relax the anal sphincter. Nitroglycerin is generally considered the medical treatment of choice when other conservative measures fail. Side effects may include headache.
    • Steroid creams, to help relieve discomfort.
    • Botulin toxin type A (Botox) injection, to paralyze the anal sphincter muscle and relax spasms.
    • Blood pressure medications, which can help relax the anal sphincter. These medications may be taken by mouth or applied externally and may be used when nitroglycerin in not effective or causes significant side effects.

    Surgery

    If you have a chronic anal fissure that is resistant to other treatments, or if your symptoms are severe, your doctor may recommend surgery. Surgery usually involves cutting a small portion of the anal sphincter muscle to reduce spasm and pain and promote healing. Surgery has a small risk of causing incontinence.

Piles (haemorrhoids) – basics, symptoms and treatment

What are haemorrhoids?

Haemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels in or around the anus and rectum. The haemorrhoidal veins are located in the lowest part of the rectum and the anus. Sometimes they swell so that the vein walls become stretched, thin, and irritated by passing bowel movements. Haemorrhoids are classified into two general categories: internal and external.

Internal haemorrhoids lie far enough inside the rectum that you can't see or feel them. They don't usually hurt because there are few pain-sensing nerves in the rectum. Bleeding may be the only sign that they are there. Sometimes internal haemorrhoids  prolapse, or enlarge and protrude outside the anal sphincter. If so, you may be able to see or feel them as moist, pink pads of skin that are pinker than the surrounding area. Prolapsed haemorrhoids may hurt because they become irritated by rubbing from clothing and sitting. They usually recede into the rectum on their own; if they don't, they can be gently pushed back into place.
External haemorrhoids lie within the anus and are often uncomfortable. If an external haemorrhoid prolapses to the outside (usually in the course of passing a stool), you can see and feel it. Blood clots sometimes form within prolapsed external haemorrhoids, causing an extremely painful condition called a thrombosis. If an external haemorrhoid becomes thrombosed, it can look rather frightening, turning purple or blue, and could possibly bleed. Despite their appearance, thrombosed haemorrhoids are usually not serious and will resolve themselves in about a week. If the pain is unbearable, the thrombosed haemorrhoid can be removed with surgery, which stops the pain.
Anal bleeding and pain of any sort is alarming and should be evaluated; it can indicate a life-threatening condition, such as  colorectal cancer. Haemorrhoids are the main cause of anal bleeding and are rarely dangerous, but a definite diagnosis from your doctor is essential.

What causes haemorrhoids?
Anyone at any age can be affected by haemorrhoids. They are very common, with about 50% of people experiencing them at some time in their life. However, they are usually more common in elderly people and during  pregnancy. Researchers are not certain what causes haemorrhoids. "Weak" veins - leading to haemorrhoids and other  varicose veins - may be inherited.
It's likely that extreme abdominal pressure causes the veins to swell and become susceptible to irritation. The pressure can be caused by obesity, pregnancy, standing or sitting for long periods, straining on the toilet, coughing, sneezing,vomiting, and holding your breath while straining to do physical labour.
Diet has a pivotal role in causing - and preventing - haemorrhoids. People who consistently eat a high-fibre diet are less likely to get haemorrhoids, but those who prefer a diet high in processed foods are at greater risk of haemorrhoids. A low-fibre diet or inadequate fluid intake can cause constipation, which can contribute to haemorrhoids in two ways: it promotes straining on the toilet and it also aggravates the haemorrhoids by producing hard stools that further irritate the swollen veins.

What are the symptoms of piles?

The symptoms of haemorrhoids include:
·         Bright red bleeding from the anus. Blood may streak the bowel movement or the toilet paper.
·         Tenderness or pain during bowel movements.
·         Painful swelling or a lump near the anus.
·         Anal itching.
·         A mucous anal discharge.

Seek medical advice if:

·         You have rectal bleeding for the first time, even if you believe you have haemorrhoids. Colon polyps,  colitis,  Crohn's disease, and colorectal cancer can also cause rectal bleeding. An accurate diagnosis is essential.
·         You have been diagnosed with haemorrhoids, and you have rectal bleeding that is chronic (daily or weekly) or more profuse than just streaking. Though rare, excessive haemorrhoidal bleeding can cause  anaemia.

How do I know if I have piles?

First, your doctor will look at the anal area, perhaps by inserting a lubricated gloved finger or an anoscope (a hollow, lighted tube for viewing the lower few inches of the rectum) or a proctoscope (which works like an anoscope, but provides a more thorough rectal examination).
More procedures may be needed to identify internal haemorrhoids or rule out other ailments that frequently cause anal bleeding, such as anal fissure, colitis, Crohn's disease, and colorectal cancer.
To see further into the anal canal (into the lower, or sigmoid, colon), sigmoidoscopy may be used, or the entire colon may be viewed with  colonoscopy. For both procedures, a lighted, flexible viewing tube is inserted into the rectum. A barium X-ray can show the entire colon's interior. First a barium enema is given and then X-rays are taken of the lower  gastrointestinal tract.

What are the treatments for piles?

There are treatments for piles available from pharmacies or through a GP.

Creams, ointments and suppositories can help relieve swelling and inflammation symptoms in the short term. A GP may recommend corticosteroid cream for severe inflammation.

Warm (but not hot) sitz baths are a traditional therapy for piles: sit in about 8 cm of warm water for 15 minutes, several times a day, especially after a bowel movement.

Painkillers, such as paracetamol, can help relieve pain caused by piles. Products with local anaesthetic may be prescribed to treat painful haemorrhoids.

If you are constipated, a GP may recommend using a laxative.

However, these treatments do not get rid of the haemorrhoids themselves.

If you are pregnant, discuss any treatment, including dietary changes, with your doctor before proceeding.

If symptoms persist, your doctor may suggest one of the following procedures. Many can be performed as a day-case:
 
Injection or sclerotherapy. An internal haemorrhoid can be injected with a solution that creates a scar and closes off the haemorrhoid. The injection will only hurt a little.

Banding. Prolapsed haemorrhoids are often removed using rubber-band ligation. A special tool secures a tiny rubber band around the haemorrhoid, shutting off its blood supply almost instantly. Within a week, the haemorrhoid shrivels and falls off.

Coagulation or cauterisation. Using either an electric probe, a laser beam, or an infrared light, a tiny burn painlessly seals the end of the haemorrhoid, causing it to close off and shrink. This is most useful for prolapsed haemorrhoids.

Surgery. For large internal haemorrhoids or extremely uncomfortable external haemorrhoids (such as thrombosed haemorrhoids that are too painful to live with), your doctor may choose traditional surgery, called haemorrhoidectomy.
The success rate for haemorrhoid removal approaches 95%, but unless dietary and lifestyle changes are made, haemorrhoids may recur.



NON SURGICAL / NON INVASIVE
Piles i e. Hemorrhoid and Fistula are diseases of blood vessel, either artery or vein. When distended blood vessels further distended or compressed may rupture and cause even torrential bleeding inside the anal canal. Piles is varicose vein of anus and rectum, it is also said to be aneurysm of blood vessel.
Causes

Nutrition and diet
You can prevent constipation by following a high-fibre diet. Meals and snacks should consist primarily of vegetables, fruit, nuts, and whole grains, and as few processed foods and meats as possible. If this is a big change for you, introduce the new foods slowly, to avoid wind.
If you aren't able to eat enough high-fibre food, supplement your diet with stool softeners or bulk-forming agents. (Avoid laxatives, which may cause  diarrhoea that can further irritate the swollen veins.)
Drink at least eight glasses of water each day; if your life is especially active or you live in a hot climate, you will need more.
Monitor your salt intake. Excess salt in the diet causes fluid retention, which means swelling in all veins, including haemorrhoids.

At-home remedies
·         Try not to sit for hours at a time. If you have to, take breaks: once every hour, get up and move around for at least five minutes. A doughnut-shaped cushion can make sitting more comfortable and ease haemorrhoid pressure and pain.
·         Insert petroleum jelly just inside the anus to make bowel movements less painful.
·         Consider dabbing witch hazel (a soothing anti-inflammatory agent) on irritated haemorrhoids to reduce pain and itching.
·         Resist the temptation to scratch haemorrhoids, as it makes everything worse: the inflamed veins become more irritated; the skin around them becomes damaged; and the itching itself intensifies. Instead, to help reduce swelling and irritation consider using an over-the-counter steroid cream to the skin (not inside the anus - on the outside only) and a cold pack. You might try over-the-counter haemorrhoidal creams for relief from itching.
·         If you need a pain reliever, consider using paracetamol.
·         Bathe regularly to keep the anal area clean, but be gentle: excessive scrubbing, especially with soap, can intensify burning and irritation.
·         Don't sit on the toilet for more than five minutes at a time, and when wiping, be gentle. If toilet paper is irritating, try dampening it first, or use cotton balls or alcohol-free baby wipes. You may prefer washing yourself and then dabbing the area dry.
·         When performing any task that requires exertion, be sure to breathe evenly. It's common to hold your breath during exertion, and if you do, you're straining and contributing to haemorrhoid swelling.

 How can I prevent piles?
A healthy diet and lifestyle are good insurance for preventing haemorrhoids, whether you already suffer haemorrhoid symptoms or are intent on preventing them. Regular exercise is also important, especially if you have a sedentary job. Exercise helps in several ways: keeping weight in check, making constipation less likely, and enhancing muscle tone.


Healthy bowel habits also help prevent haemorrhoids. Use the toilet as soon as you feel the urge to do so. Also, avoid sitting on the toilet for prolonged periods (more than five minutes) and avoid straining during a bowel movement.

LASER SCANNER

In a severe case of hemorrhoid, surgery is usually recommended by the medical specialist. However, more people are turning towards Hemorrhoids laser surgery as a perfect solution for their woes. Laser treatment is usually used in acute cases of hemorrhoids or on patients who have had several recurrences of hemorrhoids. It is far more precise and accurate than most other techniques used to treat hemorrhoids.

D.G.U.H.A.L

Modern American technique Non invasive and very effective for internal harmorrhoids. Substitutes all other modalities. Replaces haemorrhoidectomy. The principle in the treatment of D.G.U.H.A.L is the detection of the pulsation of the branches of haemorrhoidal arteries by Doppler guided ultra sound and ligation of the vessels.

H.F.L.T

A modified form of laser with less penetrating power with different probes or electrodes to suit different situations like high fistula, low fistula, fissure,& also using for piles.

C.T. LASER

Laser-light amplification of stimulated emission of radiations. It is a flame cutting technique like are welding. No contact no touch technique Cutting is by melting by the heat of the flame. No bleeding ,haemostatic and most modern successful method. 100% result with instant and immediate effect. 100% safe no recurrennce.

ULTRASOUND SCAN

An ultrasound scan is a painless procedure that uses sound waves to create images of organs and structures inside your body. It is a quicker and easier way to assess the organs, tissues and vessels when compared to other imaging methods such as CT and MRI for example, and is therefore frequently used to help monitor and diagnose conditions in many parts of the body. Ultrasound is a high frequency sound that you cannot hear, but it can be emitted and detected by special machines. The images are produced when the sound waves are directed into the body then reflected back to a scanner that measures them..

INFRARED COAGULATION

Infrared Coagulation is a non-surgical procedure used to treat internal hemorrhoids. In this the doctor uses a device that creates an intense beam of infrared light. Heat created by the infrared light causes scar tissue, which cuts off the blood supply to the hemorrhoid. Infrared Coagulation is known as a fixative treatment, and is similar to other fixative treatments like Rubber Band Ligation and Sclerotherapy, in that its objective is to reduce Hemorrhoid symptoms by eliminating Hemorrhoids through obstruction of blood-flow to the affected region. Individuals can suffer from a variety of Hemorrhoids, each case presenting its own symptoms and necessitating different courses of treatment. Also used for stoppage of bleeding.

COLONOSCOPY

Colonoscopy is the endoscopic examination of the colon and the distal part of the small bowel with a CCD camera or a Fiber Optic Camera on a flexible tube passed through the Anus. It may provide a visual diagnosis (e.g. Ulceration, Polyps) and grants the opportunity for biopsy or removal of suspected lesions. During a colonoscopy, tissue samples can be collected and abnormal growths can be taken out. Colonoscopy can also be used as a screening test to check for cancer or pre cancerous growths in the colon or rectum

SIGMOIDOSCOPY

A minimally invasive medical examination of the large intestine from the rectum through the last part of the colon is called Sigmoidoscopy. There are two types of Sigmoidoscopy, flexible Sigmoidoscopy, which uses a flexible Endoscope, and rigid Sigmoidoscopy, which uses a rigid device. Flexible Sigmoidoscopy is generally the preferred procedure. A Sigmoidoscopy only examines up to the sigmoid, the most distal part of the colon, while Colonoscopy examines the whole large bowel. Also used to finding the abnormalities of the large intestine, leading abnormal growth, polyps etc. and used for taking biopsy.
